JUST KEEP SMILING

A good friend called me over the weekend with genuine concern in his voice. And being you don’t know my friend, I’ll tell you, he rarely shows this vulnerable side. He asked, “There’s so much anger all around us, what can we do? What can you and I do to …

EXPRESSION

The neighbor girl asked my favorite color…which made me realize something important about myself that I would like to share with you. If you could take just a moment and glance at the image above, you may be reminded of a friend, a coworker, a family member, or, frankly, yourself. …

THE NEW NORM

Everything is weird now a days. Agreed? This past weekend, we went to our local green house to purchase flowers for our outdoor pots and various vegetables for my garden. And since it’s now illegal to show our faces in public, I wore my government approved lady-from-work, hand-sewn red bandanna …

PROJECTS

How are those honey-do-lists coming along? A few weeks ago, when the human-world paused and mother nature took a deep breath of relief, I made a list of projects to complete. Of my fully filled college ruled paper page, I have scratched off two items. One being vacuuming behind and …

Talk about a stressful profession! This day, however, represents something a little different for me. And I’m not just …

SIGNS

We’re thirteen days into the New Year. How are those resolutions coming along? Before we delve into how upset you are about eating that donut, or starting to smoke again, or how you’ve already cursed out Karen for taking your sticky notes, or why you need to explain how that …

THE JAR

I heard a Dad joke on the radio today in regards to the upcoming New Year. The joke was so bad, it made even the DJ chuckle out loud. As we move into 2020, maybe we should work on seeing clearer in the upcoming decade. Do you see what she …

ZIP IT!

There are times when I seriously have to consider my audience. While at the store, I was talking out loud to myself while an employee stocked product. She was probably in her early twenties. (Before I continue, the answer is, yes. I often talk to myself while working. The subject …
